Belfast Lough Yachting Conference
The Belfast Lough Yachting Conference (BLYC) plays a key role in organizing the various regattas that take place. During meetings, the Sailing Secretary or a representative from each club works together to coordinate which clubs will host which regattas and on what dates. This is particularly important because some of the Belfast Lough clubs have specific tidal restrictions that need to be taken into consideration.
